GCC Presents: Judith Tewes!

Despite a thoroughly comprehensive list of potential cherry poppers,
er…suitors, and careful plotting, Charlie is three weeks into her
devirginzation campaign, still untouched, and getting desperate. In the
movie of her life, this aspiring screenwriter is giving herself a PG,
for please, get some.

Her project goes into freeze frame when her mom checks herself into rehab
and packs Charlie off to live with her estranged, or just plain strange,
grandfather, Monty. How is she supposed to get a date when she has to go
pick up his Depends?

Enter Eric, a hot rehab grad on the road to redemption, and the only one
who can make Charlie rethink her strategy. The more she gets to know him,
the more convinced she becomes that is the one, and not just another to add
to the list of people who will abandon her.

In this hilarious and heartbreaking story of one girl’s detoured road to
womanhood, Charlie’s list develops a life of its own – right when she
realizes there’s so much more to lose.

About the Author:Judith Tewes resides in small town northern Alberta, where
she: writes, sings, plays bass guitar in an all-woman band, walks her three
crazy labs, and suspects she's living the life of a superhero's alias.

LIFE

I'm a punk rock girl originally from the Midwest. I've read obsessively since I learned how and have considered myself a serious writer since I started writing poems about unrequited love and razor blades in 8th grade. Eventually I moved on to writing riot grrrl zines in high school, and finally serious story and novel writing at Columbia College Chicago. I've published two YA novels, I WANNA BE YOUR JOEY RAMONE and BALLADS OF SUBURBIA, both are from MTV Books. I'm a staff writer for Rookie magazine. I recently moved to Seattle, WA, with my two kitties and awesome husband. Welcome to the place where I babble about writing, music, and life in general!
